Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town

Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·羅傑斯)

Written by：Mel Tillis

You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair

Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere

The shadow on the wall tell me the sun is going down

Oh ruby don't take your love to town

It wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war

But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore

And yes it's true that I'm not the man I used to be

Oh ruby I still need some company

It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed

And the wants and needs of a woman your age really I realize

But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around

Oh ruby don't take your love to town

She's leaving now 'cause I just heard the slamming of the door

The way I know I heard its slams one hundred times before

And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground

Oh ruby don't take your love to town

Oh ruby for God sake's turn around
